Desperation
by Steppenwolf
C G F C
When rain drops fall and you feel low
G
Ah, do you ever think it's useless
F C
Do you feel like letting go
G
Do you ever sit and do you wonder
F C
Will the world ever change
G
And just how long will it take
F C
To have it all rearranged
G F C
Tell me why these things are still the same
G F C
Tell me why no one can seem to learn from mistakes
G F C
Take my hand if you don't know where your goin'
G F C
I'll understand, I've lost the way myself
G F C
Oh, don't take that old road it leads to nowhere
G F C
We must return before the clock strikes twelve
It's so easy to do nothin'
When you're busy night and day
Take a step in one direction
And take a step the other way
So don't stop tryin' when you stumble
Don't give up should you fall
Keep on searchin' for the passway
That will lead you through the wall
Don't look back or you'll be left behind
Don't look back or you will never find peace of mind
